Additional Comments

When first surveyed in 1975 this house had been resided in asbestos shingles. It was resurveyed in 2021, by which time it had been resided in vinyl clapboards. All of its first story windows have also been replaced with modern ones as well. 2021: This small Side Gable Vernacular Form house has a one-and-one-half-story-tall side-gabled main block to whose rear elevation is attached an equally wide one-story-tall gable-roofed ell, which gives the house a rectilinear plan. The main façade faces southwest onto Beloit Street, and it is symmetrical in design and three-bays-wide, with the main entrance in the center bay. This house has now been resided in vinyl clapboards and all its original windows have been replaced with modern one-over-one-light ones. In addition, a large gable-roofed one-story garage addition was added to the south-east-facing side elevation sometime after 1975.
